Description
Ryouko is an extremely forgetful girl, she could even forget something that has just happened. So in order to remember, she takes a notebook with her, called Ryouko's Memory Note. She writes what she sees and what she hears on the notebook, and the notebook became her memory.
Though Ryouko is forgetful, she is also born with superb analyzing abilities. However, analyzing depends greatly on gathered information, in other words, memory. So she has to shuffle through her notebook whenever she needs to analyze, which is tough work.
Ryouko's notebook consists of n pages, numbered from 1 to n. To make life (and this problem) easier, we consider that to turn from page x to page y, |x - y| pages should be turned. During analyzing, Ryouko needs m pieces of information, the i-th piece of information is on page ai. Information must be read from the notebook in order, so the total number of pages that Ryouko needs to turn is .
Ryouko wants to decrease the number of pages that need to be turned. In order to achieve this, she can merge two pages of her notebook. If Ryouko merges page x to page y, she would copy all the information on page x to y (1 ≤ x, y ≤ n), and consequently, all elements in sequence a that was x would become y. Note that x can be equal to y, in which case no changes take place.
Please tell Ryouko the minimum number of pages that she needs to turn. Note she can apply the described operation at most once before the reading. Note that the answer can exceed 32-bit integers.
Input
The first line of input contains two integers n and m (1 ≤ n, m ≤ 105).
The next line contains m integers separated by spaces: a1, a2, ..., am (1 ≤ ai ≤ n).
Output
Print a single integer — the minimum number of pages Ryouko needs to turn.
Sample Input
4 6
1 2 3 4 3 2
Sample Output
3
Hint
题意
有一个人，他在读书，然后他会依次翻页，现在他可以使用一次魔法，把可以把第x页合并在第y页上
问你至多使用一次魔法的情况下，他最少翻页多少页？
题解：
对于某一页，他如果变了的话，就只会影响要翻到他的页数，和他要翻到的页数
把这些都存下来，然后显然取个中位数就好了
所以直接这样暴力莽一波就好了
复杂度是nlogn的，均摊了一下
